Portal used to cost money. Until May 24th, it's free. End of story. Now you have no reason not to try Portal. For the first time ever, Portal is also available for the Mac.

"Capital news! But the excellent puzzle adventure Portal won over 40 Game of the Year awards; Surely it must cost at least five or six hundred dollars."

You'd think that, especially since it actually won over 70 Game of the Year Awards. But, like we keep saying, Portal is free. Free on the Mac. Free on the PC. But only until May 24th. So you only have a few days to decide if your free copy of Portal is worth the price Valve is currently charging - which is you ever-so-slightly moving your index finger just enough to click the big red "download" button right there.

Portal is one of the most simple yet innovative puzzle games in years. Worth every penny. In this case, all zero of them. If you don't add it to your Steam account right now, you should be ashamed to call yourself a gamer. Be warned, Portal may cause severe funtimes.
